>black hole picture

There was no black hole picture. That isn't a real picture. It is just bullshit data compiled. There's no camera involved at all. The only reason people are raging is because they happen to see it on social media and SpaceX is a better punching bag. Nothing more. There's a metric shit ton of low earth orbit sats being shat out every single week all around the world.

It will land on Mars. It can't hang in orbit forever. Though, depending on the orbit it goes into, that may be as long as 1,000 years, but more like just a few years.

I don't really care if the science in science fiction is hard or soft. What I do care about is that it is fully fleshed out and makes sense in its well-defined universe. Here's my list based on that criteria,

E. E. "Doc" Smith
Robert A. Heinlein
Michael Crichton
Liu Cixin
Stephen Baxter
Alastair Reynolds
Arthur C. Clarke
Joe Haldeman
Ernest Cline (haven't read 'Armada' yet though so I'm on the fence still)

That would be cool, but pointless since they didn't do it themselves. They won't believe anything unless they actually do it (they never will). Also, repeating extremely well-established science may not be the best use of resources.
